Coaxial connector

Abstract

The coaxial connector of the Present Disclosure includes a tube-shaped outer conductor, an insulating portion and an inner conductor. The insulating portion has a first fixed portion, a first elastic portion positioned on one side of the first fixed portion, and a second elastic portion. The inner conductor has a second fixed portion, a first holding portion positioned on one side of the second fixed portion, and a second holding portion positioned on the other side of the second fixed portion. The first elastic portion biases the outer peripheral surface of the first holding portion towards the outer peripheral surface of the inner conductor of the other coaxial connector. The second elastic portion biasing the outer peripheral surface of the second holding portion towards the outer peripheral surface of the inner conductor of the other coaxial connector.
